Description
The Allimant-Laugner Crémant Platine Extra Brut is a premium sparkling wine from Alsace, produced by the family-owned Domaine Allimant-Laugner. This estate, located in Orschwiller, has a long wine-growing tradition dating back to the 17th century and is known for its refined and expressive wines.
The Allimant-Laugner Crémant Platine Extra Brut is made from a blend of 60% Pinot blanc and 40% Riesling from the 2020 harvest. Made according to the méthode traditionnelle (like Champagne), with a second fermentation in the bottle. This cuvée was vinified without any added sugar and without dosage at disgorgement, after 42 months of maturation on lie. It reveals a pure expression of its granite terroir, with a crystalline freshness.
Color: Pale gold with fine, lively bubbles
Nose: Elegant aromas of white fruit (apple, pear), citrus, almond and brioche
Taste: Tight and fresh, with a delicate minerality, lively acidity and a long, refined finish
This Crémant Platine Extra Brut is an excellent choice for lovers of dry sparkling wines and is perfect as an aperitif, but also with dishes such as: Oysters and shellfish, Smoked salmon or tuna tartare, Sushi and sashimi, Grilled chicken or turkey with light sauces, Hard cheeses such as Comté or Parmigiano-Reggiano
In France they are crazy about Crémant d'Alsace. There it is, after Champagne, the most consumed sparkling wine. For home consumption this bubble is even number 1 with the French and the price quality of the Allimant Laugner Cremant which belongs to the best méthode traditionnelle wines is unprecedentedly good and actually most expensive (commercial) champagnes can not compete with this and certainly if we take price into account. The fact that we are not alone in this is also proven by the fact that for example the Cremant Rosé from Allimant-Laugner is in the top 3 of "Best Sparkling Wines" on Vivino

ABOUT DOMAINE ALLIMANT-LAUGNER
The origins of Domaine Allimant-Laugner begin with 2 families who have cultivated the vineyards since the 17th century, the Laugners in the village of Dieffenthal and the Allimants in Saint-Hippolyte. In 1816 and after participating in all of Napoleon's campaigns, Captain François-Antoine Allimant bought more vines on the hills of Haut-Koenigsbourg and a beautiful farmhouse from 1664 in the village of Orschwiller, the current property of the domaine. Like most families, the Allimants still made a living from growing multiple crops, but chose to focus more on wine with Charles Allimant, who began bottling his wine in 1949 and developed their distribution with his daughter Mariette and her husband René Laugner. Their eldest son Hubert took over in 1984, giving the domaine its real fame together with his wife Françoise, and since 2013 with their son Nicolas. The family manages Domaine Allimant-Laugner as a beautiful heritage for more than 10 generations.
The privilege of a product of this unique authentic terroir also gives a responsible and therefore Domaine Allimant-Laugner works naturally with the greatest respect for the environment. All tasks are (pruning, picking, maintenance) and also because through close contact with the vines it is better understood what the needs are. In order to control the power of the vines well and to preserve the ecosystem, they mainly work with alternating ploughed and grassy rows. In the cellar too, modernity and tradition must be well balanced to produce precise and fine wines, but with a minimal human and ecological footprint. They work with a brand new pneumatic press and stainless steel tanks with temperature control and fermentation takes place only with natural yeasts. The foundation is laid in the unique vineyards that have been managed by the family for 10 generations. With respect and modernity, Domaine Allimant-Laugner makes great wines.

From granite soils around Orschwiller, the 2017 Crémant d'Alsace Cuvée Platine blends Pinot Blanc and Riesling and was disgorged after 42 months sur lattes as Extra Brut without any dosage or addition of sugar during the whole vinification process. This citrus- to white-golden colored sparkling wine offers a bright yet intense and elegant seed fruit aroma on the nose intertwined with brioche as well as crystalline or flinty stone notes. Supple, fresh and elegant on the palate, this is a dense, rich and sustainably structured, saline and dry-finishing Crémant with a still youthful and nicely grippy character. Very stimulating, this is a medium to full-bodied aperitif but even better with food, especially white meat, cheese but also fish. 12.5% stated alcohol. Diam cork stopper. Tasted in February 2023.

The origins of Domaine Allimant-Laugner begin with 2 families who have cultivated the vineyards since the 17th century, the Laugners in the village of Dieffenthal and the Allimants in Saint-Hippolyte. In 1816 and after participating in all of Napoleon's campaigns, Captain François-Antoine Allimant buys more vines on the Haut-Koenigsbourg hills and a beautiful 1664 farm in the village of Orschwiller, the current property of the domain.
Like most families, the Allimants still subsisted on growing more crops but chose to focus more on wine with Charles Allimant, who began bottling his wine in 1949 and developed their distribution with his daughter Mariette and her husband René Laugner. . Their eldest son Hubert took over in 1984, gave the domain real fame together with his wife Françoise, and since 2013 with their son Nicolas. The family manages Domaine Allimant-Laugner as a beautiful heritage of more than 10 generations.
The 7 varieties from Alsace (Alsace) are grown on a total of 12 hectares of vines, representing 40 separate plots of different orientations, ages and terroirs. This division of parcels is essential for the varieties to be properly expressed on the right grounds. South of the village, between Orschwiller and Saint-Hippolyte, the heavy clay and limestone soils are particularly suitable for the Pinots. North of the village as far as Châtenois there are granitic soils which allow the production of more aromatic Riesling and Gewurztraminer. Above Orschwiller, the granite and schist hills of the Praelatenberg have been turned into vines since the 9th century. This terroir allows the production of precise and very typical wines, naturally classified as Grand Cru d'Alsace. The plots have a density of more than 5500 vines per hectare, which promotes competition and deeper rooting, for better typicity. The more competition the harder a grape has to work and the deeper it has to root. Bad for high volumes but perfect for quality and that is what this house stands for.
The demand for sparkling wine is also growing in the region and the Crémants Blanc and Rosé, produced by the traditional method with our local varieties, represent half of the production of Domaine Allimant-Laugner and have certainly given the house much more international fame. after each and every one of the wines has received very high ratings from the international wine press.
The privilege of a product of this unique authentic terroir also entails a responsibility and so Domaine Allimant-Laugner works naturally with the greatest respect for the environment. All tasks (plant pruning, picking, maintenance) are done naturally, also because the close contact with the vines gives a better understanding of the needs.
